doubts with the eligibility period

[Chhea]

Hello, I am a bit confused, but is the eligibility the 5 years BEFORE i sign my application and send it? I landed in Canada in 2016 and I am going to apply now, so when they ask "list all addresses you have lived at in the eligibility period", do I include 2015? Also, I stayed in the country where I had a job, then went to stay for 2 months at my home country, then came to canada, do I include the address of my home country too? Please help! thank you!

For the 5-yr eligibility period (say 2015-08 to 2020-08), you're supposed to list all addresses where you'd lived. You should mention the address of the home country where you lived before immigrating to Canada.

**No need to include addresses where you temporarily stayed for vacation, holidays, or business visit.**
